MARINELAND LED lighting!

[salt807]

u shud of goten the stunner led strips there alot cheeper and brighter

[Rouliane1]

Blue led in tropical tank ? well....

Should have at least warm white led or red led, the red wavelength is very important in tropical tanks.

[187knight1]

I have the deep blue solar xtreme and its ten times better than any lighting l have seen so far

[sharkl11]

glass top necessary?

[weareallwet]

@sharkl11 nope

[MEGAONE302]

@sharkl11 Yes, a glass top necessary. The UVA / UVB rays need to be blocked, the rays cannot penetrate through the glass top.

[baseballhunter99]

@sharkl11 i dont have full glass know but i want to get it because i think it will look better

[01liquidfires]

i guess it wont help plants?

[weareallwet]

@01liquidfires Nope, its not very powerful. I recommend aqueon t5 for plants

[ippie888]

how do u make ur canopy fit on ur tank? my tank is like 25 in...and the canopy is like 24 in and the canopy keeps falling in...

[weareallwet]

@ippie888 Hmm, not sure I just went to the fish store and got a glass top for a 20 gallon long and it fit correctly. The dimensions should be the same as the tank it self

[BigAl0305]

I have the 18" on my ten gallon reef and it's amazing

[gaberhunter]

Are those black things holding it on the top of the tank adjustable to be able to fit a 10 gallon tank?

[weareallwet]

@gaberhunter Yeah it's adjustable!

[mikesholty]

what size is it? and how much?

[weareallwet]

@mikesholty 24 inches. It was like 80 bucks I think

[MrJJModern]

Yeah that's pretty dark for LED lighting, weird.

[angelfoodcakeface]

these lights would be great for inspecting baby mushrooms while growing them in the dark.

[Th3mast3r69]

Look how dark your tank is dude!!! You love that!??? The light is practically useless!

[weareallwet]

@Th3mast3r69 Well it's brighter than my 50/50 bulb. I actually do like the way LED lights look hitting water. Def a different look! The only think I don't like is not being able to grow many plants.

[TheLone14neer]

I got the 36" reef capable. Only lasted a month. 300+ down the drain.

[weareallwet]

@TheLone14neer Crap! that sucks. too bad you couldn't return it. Mine is still going strong

[rockpwnsu]

Does it generate lots of heat or is it cool?

[weareallwet]

@rockpwnsu No, LED lights generally stay pretty cool.

[ThePencilShredder]

Hey man nice vid. just so u know dont plant java fern in the substrate, it rots the "roots" tie it to a rock so the roots have flow. 

[weareallwet]

@ThePencilShredder Thanks! I've had them planted in the substrate for over a year and they are still alive but I think I'm going to tie them to the rocks eventually because the roots always come out of the gravel anyways lol

[ISUBANY11]

is this a single strip? And is it descent for some low light plants?

[weareallwet]

@ISUBANY11 Yes it is a single strip, and my java fern is growing well and it is a low light plant.

[ISUBANY11]

@weareallwet Awesome! Thanks for the reply.

[Arjsmithy]

How is this about to used with a timer day and night or is this unit have to manually be switched on and off..

[xtrueballerx]

Nice light man... you should've went with the single bright for a 20 gallon long... light dispersment is much better... also if you don't have lots of plants to compete with algae... you're going to have a problem with algae with the double brights... AGITATE your surface... you will get the SHIMMER EFFECT which makes LED a huge PLUS right now!

[weareallwet]

@mistaevanson yeah I got it on petco.com for $100, its the 24"-36"

[weareallwet]

@mistaevanson Its about 100 bucks

[asiandude666]

lol.. i was doing research on marineland LED single light and it is sad cause there are bad review on it.

I was going to order one but seeing how that it is manual and you have to swtich it by hand, I decide to pass it out until Marineland exactly MADE a really Auto LED lighting.

[aftershock2000]

cool tank!! i just got the marineland Reef lights for my tank!!! Man just like you I love them. I did a review of them on my page.

[weareallwet]

@aftershock2000 Thanks man! I'll check yours out too

[TheAquariumKid]

nice man! how the plants doing with it?

[weareallwet]

@TheAquariumKid Thank! The Java Fern is doing great. It keeps growing throughout the tank. The Amazon Sword was covered in algae though and it started dying so I took that out.

[OnlineFishTank]

looks good man

[weareallwet]

@OnlineFishTank Thanks!
